As an adolescent, Louis Klamroth starred in “The Miracle of Bern” and won the “Goldene Kamera” and other young talent awards. However, instead of pursuing a career as an actor, he travelled Central America, went to Haiti as an aid worker and processed his impressions in the shape of his first journalist texts and reports, among others for Stern.de. Klamroth studied politics and sociology in Amsterdam and then moved to England to obtain his master’s in politics and economics at the London School of Economics. Today, the 28-year-old combines his academic and journalistic interests with working in front of the camera. On his show “Klamroths Konter” (“Klamroth’s riposte”), the hosting of which recently earned him the advancement award of the German “Fernsehpreis”, he interviews political heavyweights in a confrontational and critical way every two weeks. In addition, he regularly hosts various events and panel discussions and founded the non-profit digital discussion platform diskutiermitmir.de in the run-up to the German federal elections in 2017.
